URLs for files in repos not working over SSH tunnel/bastion
Summary
Our gitlab-ee core install (version 13.0.3) is hosted in a container that is behind a bastion. The IP of the gitlab container is 10.0.0.50, and external_url is set to this IP. Users access the gitlab instance by setting up an SSH tunnel such that localhost:9000 forwards to 10.0.0.50.
This works well -- with one exception, that URLs that point to file assets in the repo have a path like http://10.0.0.50/server/reponame/-/blob/master/testing.sh, which the users can't reach on their machines since they are outside that network. The URL should say http://localhost:9000/server/reponame/-/blob/master/testing.sh -- like all the links in the left menu (http://localhost:9000/server/reponame/activity for instance).
Browsing into folders works fine -- but these URLs are also incorrect (http://10.0.0.50/server/reponame/-/tree/master/foldername).
Not sure if this is expected behavior or not -- but it used to work (I can't recall which version change caused this, may have been in the 12.x series where I first saw it).
Steps to reproduce
Setup network topology as described above, try to access a file asset in any repo and the link will contain a URL that can't be reached.
What is the current bug behavior?
Links to files in the repo are broken when hosted over an ssh tunnel/bastion
What is the expected correct behavior?
URLs should be reachable (localhost:9000 in the example above)
